Iron, Filtered In

Janet Kuypers
8/12/19, Periodic Table Twitter poem
on Facebook and Twitter

They take those Iron-laced
tobacco leaves,
mash them into paper,
then cut them up
for rolling cigarettes.

And those filters they make
are so tightly bound
that if you pull the filter sheet 30 feet
it instantly snaps back
to where it was

Wonder if those filters
filter me out...
